 +May workshop
 +  * conference / not conference.  NASA requires 3 months forcasting for a 'conference'.  Issues for Brendon, Roger, maybe others.
 +    * LUVOIR meetings are similar and not conferences. Main difference was all LUVOIR meetings were under same webpage as their telecons, so avoided the issue.
 +    * Now linked our workshop through wikipage. Plan to remove main workshop page and put everything under wiki.
 +      * Talked to Rita S. at headquarters and looks reasonable to get this changed. Filling out a form through Rita and she'll pass this to final determiners at headquarters.
 +    * CL: NASA is sometimes opaque. But framing this as 'working meeting' makes sense. Possible pushback due to number of attendees.
 +  * Connecting to broader community. For decadal, astro connection is important.  Also galactic science connections and neutrino science connections.
 +    * Worth attending other meetings and talking about PICO (e.g. for galactic science meetings)
 +    * Lloyd: go find them and talk, rather than setting up a special session (like at AAS) and expecting them to come to us.
 +    * SH: should we have a main conference contact? To field suggestions of conferences
 +      * LK: Can do this. Look at emails of options and forward them to appropriate speaker options.
 +      * SH: will also talk to Nick about what connections he knows, especially with S4.
 +    * SH: note that after Jan. we'll have little money to fund travel. Most money for travel will be now to December.
 +  * Program finalizing:
 +    * status of Tracy and fundamental physics talk?
 +    * **Lloyd/Dan** to finalize with Tracy and finalize Cosmic Birefringence
 +    * Galactic/Extrgalactic
 +      * Nick with final panel invited will check with him
 +      * Sky models will be covered by Brendan or Clem
 +    * Tech panel being set by Shaul
 +    * Thursday morning:
 +      * Suzanne is a yes. Lloyd moderating.  Shaul/LLoyd to finalize panel today.
 +      * Shaul to reach out to Scott D.
 +      * Intro talk about process?
 +        * Suggestions for person? John C.? --Shaul contact him. He served on previous panel.
 +          * Josh Frieman was on last panel also.
 +          * Mike Turner
 +          * S4 process was talked about by John C.
 +
 +----
 +E-mail from Lloyd
 +
 +Decadal Survey timeline, [[https://cmb-s4.org/CMB-S4workshops/index.php/File:CMB-S4_DecadalPlanning_v2.pdf|from John C’s S4 presentation]]
 +
 +  * Fall 2018: Survey Chair selected (could be much sooner) 
 +  * Early 2019: Survey Committee finalized and approved 
 +  * Early 2019: 1st survey meeting, scope and date set for white papers 
 +  * Mar 2019: Short “white papers” due: - We need to submit CMB-S4 Overview white paper, i.e., killer science case, readiness, w/ cost estimate and schedule - We also want to encourage submission of additional science white papers that support CMB-S4 
 +  *  Spring 2019: Survey requests additional input from selected projects - We need to have detailed CMB-S4 science and project description ready, what we are referring to as the “Decadal Survey Conceptual Design Report”
 +
 +----
 +
 +
 +
 +TeamX next 2 weeks.
 +  * Instrument next week (3 days)
 +  * Mission week after
 +  * Input from TeamX to independent cost estimator (ICE)
 +    * Reservations taken to NASA.
 +    * Plan is TeamX to ICE (with TeamX having been briefed that goals of this TeamX is slightly different)
 +    * We can also add narrative to these slides.
 +      * 'rebuttal' was word used. but just explanation and added information is more Shaul's thought.
 +  * Hoping to iterate with TeamX and their slides to send correct message to ICE.
 +    * AT: this is a reasonable expectation. Matches my conversations with TeamX.  Have talked to TeamX folks about different audience for slides this time around.
